queercode··on Aquafaba
im glad aquafaba is getting attention outside of vegan cooking
queercode··on Show HN: Moufette – an open-source tool to capture user feedback
It should be 'position: fixed;'
queercode··on Show HN: Pattern.css – CSS-only library to fill empty background with patterns
Love it!

Site could use some help though. Consider making a repo for the actual website please! Would love to help clean it up a bit.

queercode··on Show HN: React-tater – A React component to add annotations to any element
Super cool!

Feature idea: having a way of auto-incrementing them would be nice (instead of having to switch icon to a number).

queercode··on Launch HN: Art in Res (YC W20) – Buy art directly from artists
a lil bit of website feedback: on route change, please scroll the page to the top.

if i scroll to the end of the home page, then go to "how it works", i'd expect not to be at the end of that page.

love it, though!

queercode··on Is “Ass” the Most Complicated Word in English?
NSFW, btw
queercode··on No evidence that testosterone reduces cognitive empathy
I don't think this is true.

Intramuscular testosterone is the most common method of HRT for trans men / trans masc folks.

The effects of which are not "androgen".

queercode··on Graphics That Seem Clear Can Easily Be Misread
In other words, some people don't know how to read graphs.
queercode··on [dead]
I, vegan for 13+ years, was excited until I checked out the link.

This looks like spam tbh.

queercode··on New research questions the evidence for health benefits of eating less red meat
Nothing is "objectively unethical". That doesn't mean conversations about ethics can't and don't take place.
queercode··on New research questions the evidence for health benefits of eating less red meat
I'd say unethical for everyone.

This isn't even just an "animal rights" debate. It's also a debate about the impact that eating meat has on the environment.

There's way too many "eat less meat" articles to list, but here's one: https://time.com/5648082/un-climate-report-less-meat/

Sure, it's a bit of a jump from "eat less meat" to "eat no meat", but the trend is there.

queercode··on New research questions the evidence for health benefits of eating less red meat
How about "eat no meat regardless of nutritional value (unless absolutely necessary) because it's unethical to do so"?
queercode··on Match.com Used Fake Ads to Swindle Users, F.T.C. Says
It's no more presumptuous to assume OP is a straight male.
queercode··on Show HN: Browser Extension to Refine the HN Experience
I'm liking the auto refresh feature, but it'd be nice to have a setting to refresh to the main page, not the page I left off at.
queercode··on Show HN: Browser Extension to Refine the HN Experience
testing the reply feature
queercode··on Random Forests for Complete Beginners
Thanks for posting this - from a fellow HH member who saw this yesterday!
queercode··on Show HN: I made a platform for journalists to “open source” their fact checking
The hover state reminds me of the lyric annotation system Genius (https://genius.com/) has, which is a good thing.
queercode··on Burger King is introducing a vegetarian patty from the start-up Impossible Foods
Yep, if I remember correctly, their current veggie patty is a morning star patty.

Depending on how often these items are asked for, though, and particularly in smaller cities, it's not uncommon for them to be deep frozen and pretty freezer-burnt by the time they reach you (same as Subway).

queercode··on Show HN: A Color Picker I Made
Would definitely like more 12 options.
queercode··on Cloudflare Registrar
Thanks for the info. This makes it a hard pass for me until I can use other nameservers.
queercode··on Building accessible websites and apps is a moral obligation
The default blue link color is also accessible by default, w/ a contrast to white of 9.3: https://color.review/check/0000EE-FFFFFF
queercode··on Artificial meat: UK scientists growing 'bacon' in labs
As a vegan, this is neat. There are tons of "vegan bacon" substitutes on the market, and most of them are pretty bad.

It being as unhealthy as "real" bacon is concerning a bit - but, I'll be fine.

queercode··on Americans Cross Border into Mexico to Buy Insulin
I didn't know this was news. My mother, a US resident who's lived in the US for ~30 years, in a border town, goes across every time she needs any sort of medical care.

The Red Cross only takes cash, but it's so much cheaper (actually affordable).

queercode··on What Makes a Great Logo – Four Critical Qualities That Nobody Talks About
Suggesting that "every product, restaurant, and company [having] the exact same label set in the same type with the same colours" is a "Marxist dream" is totally not how that works, though.
queercode··on Howler.js – JavaScript audio library for the modern web
I've used Howler on a few sites to make media players for small-time artists' sites. It's pretty neat.
